MA Qiusha Solo Exhibition in Beijing Commune 2016

Beijing Commune is pleased to announce the opening of Ma Qiusha's fifth solo exhibition "Wonderland" at the gallery on June 15th, 2016. The exhibition will continue until August 6th, 2016.

Exhibition title "Wonderland" derives from a mega-scale amusement part extravagantly built in the 1990s in Changping District, the fringe of Beijing City. Like the Chinese exhibition title "沃德兰" , the park's Chinese name was a phonetic transliteration from the English word. Eagerly anticipated at the time, giant town of spectacles and ambition claim to be the "world's largest amusement park", only to find itself decayed for complex reasons and was eventually quietly demolished after decades of abandonment.展览名称“沃德兰”取自北京昌平九十年代斥巨资建造的巨型游乐园的名字，也是英文单词“wonderland”的汉语音译。这座充满了奇幻与雄心的巨城被寄予了热烈的期望，号称当时的世界第一大乐园，却由于复杂的原因而烂尾，直至荒废数十年后被悄然拆除。
